Metoprolol
I have recently gone from PAF to the AF being semi-permanent. I have been prescribed metoprolol which is helping but every pharmacy I contact, and also my own prescribing surgery are finding it very hard to get hold of. Anyone else have this problem? I am in UK.

Unexplained pain in the mornings:
I recently began tapering from 15mg after my PMR diagnosis down to 10mg over a couple of months, following the usual NHS protocol, but on 10mg I began to get pain in the upper back between the shoulder blades, and in my arms, upper and lower, and especially on the right, and sometimes behind the knees

Aortic Valve and root replacement - Story of my journey which I hope will help and inspire others who are feeling anxious about surgery.
Hi everyone, I am now 4 months post-surgery and doing really well. I know there are a lot of people who are due to have open heart surgery that are feeling anxious and worried so I thought I would share my journey with you including the daily diary that my wife and I kept during my week in hospital

Negative Posting About the NHS
Hi all. Recently I have seen some very negative posts/responses to people with regards the NHS and it's lack of performance, commitment, etc., to TBI sufferers. It is so bad that like a used car forum where people only post when they have a problem, never to say they have a great car, I'd like to somewhat

buprenorphine, pregablin, opiates
Hi all. In the ongoing battle to get things stable I have been able to decrease my buprenorphine to under .5mg sublingual (from 2mg) and pregablin to 100mg (from 225mg). RLS is mostly managed well which is terrific but I can't say that I feel much less tired overall having decreased dosages. Like

post right hemicolectomy functional bowel disorder
my son age 7 during storm Emma passed out and vomited continuously, we had to take him to the nearest accessible hospital with ice chains on the car , they just said it was viral. A scan the next day revealed intersusception so his bowel was blocked , he developed sepsis. He had a right hemicolectomy

Waiting forever for Heart MRI
At my echocardiogram, I was told I needed to go direct to A&E and they they had spoken to cardiology and I was to be admitted. I wasn’t they just sent me home. Had to chase up my emergency cardiology appointment, which was a month from echo. Now I’m awaiting an heart MRI. Apparently 3 month wait

total knee replacement triggering RLS
I had a left knee replacement surgery April 10th this year. My right knee is also “bone on bone” from osteoarthritis and I’m dreading getting a second one as its been a rough recovery, and the RLS return has me worried too. 4 months out I’m getting stronger week by week although I’m definitely not

Good News about Neuro One
I’d like to shear this news from Parkinson’s News Today: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration in December 2023 cleared the device for measuring brain electrical activity and selectively destroying damaged nervous tissue during functional neurosurgery, or surgery to restore neuronal function.

TUBAL SURGERY
Hi 👋 Anyone know where I can get tubal surgery to unblock both fallopian tubes. Our ivf has failed and I do not want to go through this ever again but the doctor left us with no other choice or options. I can't go through all these drugs again it's too much for me I wish everyone a successful outcome

Urgent! Cataract surgery info.
I was booked to have cataract surgery this coming Monday and the hospital contacted the surgeon and said because of APS I have to have single use instruments because the eye tissue is delicate?? My surgeon is a skilled man and I have complete faith in him but he said in all his years of doing this surgery
